Default (.5/1) 6 max Flopped trips, lots of action

No reads really, most are very Loose Passive as it's a very low limit game.

Preflop: Hero is BB with 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, Button calls, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (8.50 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>

Really bad players, anything I should have done differently?

The only thing I might have done diferently is gone for the check raise on the turn. You have someone who is almost all-in and will surely bet if checked to then you can raise your remaining opponent. But this only gains a fraction of a bet as the turn will sometimes be checked through. Well played.

Nice thought, I should have check raised the turn. I would have almost broke even on the hand if I would have done that.

Turns out the button on the river had only KJ.

Guy all in on the flop had QQ

Guy all in on the turn had JJ.

I was drawing to 1 out from the flop and didn't know it, just one of those perfect hands. I only posted to ask the main question, should I be slowing my aggression on a board that's as good for me as this with raisers? The reraise on the flop looked like over pair and it was (QQ). The jacks I had no idea.

Should I ever switch and just call down with a set like this?

No not on this board until the turn was capped. Then you could call the river. Don't post results no one cares what opponents had in this hand, we just cared how you played it.

I understand that, but knowing the results easily shows how vulnerable I was and led to the question about calling down. I'm not worried about it, or the results as it's rare for that to happen.

Thanks for the info.
